ABOUT

Fear hurts. It is responsible for a lot that goes wrong in our lives: confusion, self-denial, paralysis. When we are disappointed to the point of inaction, when we withhold our potential, when we refuse to be who we are, fear of failure and judgment is at the core. There are many shades of fear, but they all cripple us and threaten the life of fulfillment we deserve to lead.

At Fear.less, our patience with fear has run out. What we’ve found most helpful in dealing with it is to see the detailed experiences of all sorts of people who have gone what we all go through and come out triumphant on the other side, to prove that fear doesn’t have to win and that it really shouldn’t have a chance at all. Open, honest lessons are easy to learn and to apply to your own life.

This site is where we share our findings with you. We update weekly with interviews and meditations on fear, ranging from how to start something scary to how to gain a better perspective to how to accept yourself. In between, we’ll give you whatever else we find: the video, website or resource that might change everything. And we won’t overwhelm you with information – we’re careful about what and when we post and our content is always here for you to check out whenever you’re ready. Fear is intense; take your time with the guidance and tools you get here.

Our mission is to provide you with deep, satisfying, platitude-free content to fill the mental toolbox you use to deal with fear. By reading Fear.less, you’ll get the tools you need to stay locked on to your dreams and your purpose. We don’t think that there is one magic solution for everyone; we keep the content flowing so you can find what works for you.
